My suggestion is to get the tamux package installed on your machine. It
includes a "blank" Xconfig that will help get you started. All you have
to do is install this Xconfig, use Ctrl-Alt-[numeric keypad +] to cycle
through the video modes, and write down the ones that work the best for you.
Unfortunately, you have to count yourself, beginning at one, what the number of
the modes are (since there are no indicators). Then, remove all lines from
the Xconfig video database that you don't want. Finally, use vgaset to
optimize things (to help you center your screen, e.g.).
You can get a tamux setup package somewhere in one of the x-disks for slackware
at ftp.cdrom.com in pub/linux/slackware/x(something or other).
Good luck,
